Increasing utilization in medical electronics may drive the demand for multi-layered PCBs

The multi-layered printed circuit board market is anticipated to attain more than 6% gains through 2030, accounting for a significant industry share. Unlike double-layer PCBs, multi-layer PCBs have at least three layers of conductive material buried in the center. Due to the presence of core and copper layers, these are more robust and thicker than their counterparts. The increasing utilization of these circuit boards in several compact electronic and medical equipment such as computers, GPS technology, handheld devices, X-ray equipment, heart monitors, etc., may support business expansion by 2030.
